STORY: :: Harris' star-studded Georgia rally sees Bruce Springsteen, Spike Lee and Tyler Perry :: October 24, 2024 :: Clarkston, Georgia :: Bruce Springsteen, Musician “I want a president who reveres the Constitution, who does not threaten but wants to protect and guide our great democracy, who believes in the rule of law and the peaceful transfer of power, who will fight for a woman's right to choose and who wants to create a middle class economy that will serve all our citizens. :: Spike Lee, Director “You already know what time it is that we don't have a moment to lose. You want to stop that other guy? I don't call by his name.
I call him Agent Orange, you dig? So now, we cannot be hoodwinked, bamboozled.” :: Tyler Perry, Actor and filmmaker “And what I realize is that in this Donald Trump America, there is no dream that looks like me. We want a president who believes that this American dream is for everyone and that president is Kamala Harris.
” Ahead of Harris' remarks, film director Spike Lee warned a packed crowd at the James R. Hallford Stadium not to be "bamboozled" into voting for Republican nominee Donald Trump, and Springsteen performed melancholy laments "The Promised Land" and "Land of Hope and Dreams." "Donald Trump is running to be an American tyrant.
He does not understand this country, its history or what it means to be American," Springsteen said, as he encouraged the crowd to vote for Harris. Obama, who has been campaigning in political swing states for Vice President Harris, said Trump thought about no one but himself. He implied that Trump was acting like a doddering old man and noted that Harris had actually worked at McDonald's earlier in her life.
"She worked at McDonald's when she was in college to pay her expenses. She didn't pretend to work at McDonald's when it was closed," Obama said, referring to Trump's recent event at the fast food chain. About 20,000 people attended the Georgia rally, her campaign said, which would make it her largest political rally yet, besting the 17,000 that Harris drew in Greensboro, North Carolina, in early September.
It is the latest attempt by the Harris campaign to capitalize on the backing of movie and music stars to rally voters in the closing days of a tight election race against Republican rival Donald Trump. On Friday (October 25), she will appear with Beyonce in Houston..
